International Scenario

Countries like US, Japan China, Australia, are considering to increase the retirement age. 
For most public and private sector jobs, retirement age is 60 years old. 
Central Universities and PSUs must consider increasing their age.

India can also learn from the model of France and Australia.  
 
While solving problem of unemployment, we must insure that Indian have adequate savings in their bank accounts.
